What is wrong with my Echeveria Fabiola? Why is there a black leaf? It’s wet to the touch…

Thanks!

I think it looks great but let it completely dry out before you water again. Remove any black leaves and hope they aren’t squishy which could be root rot. But do not water at all until the soil is completely dry. Maybe once every three weeks and longer in the winter.
